 Description of the problemI purchase the vehicle in february 2013 with 54000 miles on it. There was a shaking in the front end while braking. I was insured at the dealership that it was because it has new brakes and if it does not stop bring it back and they will fix it. I brought it back and they rotated the rotors. It worked well for about two weeks. The rotors started shaking again after only two weeks. So i brought it back again and they put new rotors on the vehicle. It has started again with the new rotors. This time it started with in a month. My car while breaking will sometime feel like there is ice under it on dry roads. I am going to take it today to big o tires and have a friend work on it that i trust. The car just hit 70000 miles. I have done only one oil change and taking the car in three times for wrapped rotors. There is something wrong that they are just ignoring. I stated that i took it in twice i took it to pinegar chevorlet in branson, mo where i purchased the vehicle. Here is some specific information on service dates and mileage purchase of vehicle: 02/14/2013 52534 miles 1st repair: 04/22/2013 rotated rotors 56032 miles 2nd repair: 08/24/2013 61,107 replaced rotors went and talked to pinegar chevrolet told then that they are vibrating again on 10/26/2013 65777 miles. Blammed the whole thing on my driving. The rotors are thinner then they are in the new cars. They do it to be more fuel efficient. It will cost about 100 to rotate the rotors. There is something wrong with my braking system and they are just ignoring it.
